I I Twenty-five years ago in the Old Cathedral of St. Peter in Chains the Most Rev. Iohn T. McNicholas was installed as Archbishop of Cincinnati. So it is that this Holy Year of 1950 also marks the silver jubilee ot his appointment and installation. When the accomplishments of Archbishop McNicholas are mentioned, these things among others come to mind: progress in Catholic high school education, erection ot homes for the sick poor and hospitals, promotion of right and just legislation for the government of the people, and guidance during the perilous days ot World War ll. One work that Archbishop McNicholas has done stands out as especially Worthy of praise. Through his efforts, numerous mission chapels have been organized throughout the archdiocese. In this way, many more people now have the blessing of being always near to the Blessed Sacrament, the Divine Sun Whose rays reach out to light the way for their daily tasks and to warm their -hearts with the love of God. ,These people are grateful to the Archbishop for this admirable work, by which greater spiritual progress has been made possible. We, too, are grateful to him for the many blessings we have received through him. We honor him as a man ot God and a staunch leader of His Church. As a token of our respect and gratitude, as a remembrance of his great work for Christ and for His Church, We dedicate Spires 1950 to the memory 0f74e7fKaoZ2eaaeadfo4a777le
